Speaker: Marta Florido Llinás (MPQ) Title: 'Generalizing the framework of translationally invariant MPS' Abstract: In this talk I will present our recent work on developing a canonical form for uniform matrix product states (MPS) with a boundary matrix (https://www.arxiv.org/abs/2512.11968). Starting from the standard canonical description of uniform MPS with periodic boundary conditions, I will explain […] |

Strings, Pheno and the Swampland Journal Club (SPS) Speaker: Michelangelo Tartaglia (IFT) Title: 'Anomaly-induced vanishing of brane partition functions' Abstract: In the presence of 't Hooft anomalies, backgrounds for the symmetries of a quantum field theory can lead to non-conservation of Noether currents, or more generally, to the presence of charged insertions in the path […]

Miquel Aparici Domingo (IFT) will present Generalized Global Symmetries by Davide Gaiotto, Anton Kapustin, Nathan Seiberg, Brian Willett, JHEP 02 (2015) 172 Abstract: A q-form global symmetry is a global symmetry for which the charged operators are of space-time dimension q, e.g. Wilson lines, surface defects, etc., and the charged excitations have q spatial dimensions, e.g. […] |

Speaker: Suman Das (IFT) Title: 'Brick wall Normal Modes and Emerging Thermality' Venue & Time: Gray Room 1 / 11:00 Abstract: arXiv:2401.01417 The ’t Hooft brick wall model provides one of the earliest microscopic derivations of the black-hole area law within the probe approximation of quantum field theory in curved spacetime. In this talk, I […] |

Venue & Time: Gray Room 3 / 11:30 Speaker: Franco Salinas Pytel (UCM) Abstract: "The debates between Einstein and Bohr on the foundations of quantum mechanics culminated in one of the most iconic statements in the history of physics: “God does not play dice.” In their seminal 1935 paper, Albert Einstein, Boris Podolsky, and Nathan […]

Strings Pheno and the Swampland Journal Club: 'Self-gravitational Effects in the Black Hole-Tower Correspondence' Venue&Time: Red Room / 12:00 Speaker: Miquel Aparici (IFT) Abstract: It is well-known that in weak coupling and near decompactification limits, towers of light particles appear in the spectrum of gravitational theories. These towers can be postulated to correspond to minimal […] |

Strings, Pheno and the Swampland Journal Club Title: 'Quantum Obstructions to N=1 Infinite Distance Limits' Speaker: Jeroen Monnee (U. Hamburg) Venue&Time: Red Room / 12:00 Abstract: We study limits in the field space of 4d N=1 orientifold compactifications of Type IIB string theory with O3/O7-planes that descend from infinite distance limits in the complex structure […] |

Strings, Pheno and the Swampland (SPS) Journal Club Speaker: Gonzalo F. Casas (IFT) Title: 'Axion-Scalar Systems and Dynamical Distances' Abstract: We study the cosmology of axion-scalar pairs, coupled by a hyperbolic field-space metric and with a string-motivated rational scalar potential. Borrowing tools from the theory of dynamical systems, we are able to classify all late-time […] |

Speaker: Pablo Páez-Velasco (Universidad Complutense de Madrid) Venue & Time: Gray Room 2 / 14:30 Abstract: Given some sufficiently smooth, generally non-convex, function F on a Riemannian manifold, and a fixed inverse temperature, the problem of sampling with respect to the associated Gibbs distribution has played a central role in several areas, such as statistical […] |

Every Thursday at 12:00 in Grey Room 2. Marta Fuentes (IFT), will present "Powerful Yukawas". We introduce a class of models where the masses of the light Standard Model fermions are due to an Effective Field Theory operator that appears beyond dimension-4 in the power counting expansion, resulting in a `Powerful Yukawa'. The effective Yukawa […]

Strings, Pheno & The Swampland Journal Club | Every Thursday at 12:00 in the Red Room. Speaker: Salvatore Raucci (IFT) Title: 'M-theory on S^1 \vee S^1 as Type 0A' Abstract: We propose an exotic geometric M-theory dual for the weak coupling Type 0A string: compactification on a sub-Planckian S^1 \vee S^1 (two circles connected at […] |
